After he got his associate's degree in computer science, Rizkowsky did warranty work for different vendors including Dell. When he moved here, initially he looked in the Yellow Pages and was looking to work for someone but decided to go into business for himself. “I like the job security of working for myself,” he said.
His business is a mobile, onsite affair. With no storefront, he has reduced overhead. This allows him to keep his prices affordable.
Many of his customers have given him feedback that he explains things to them in language that they can understand and relate to so they know what was the issue was and what got fixed.
